Meet Elaine from Waimauku

The Team from Auckland Humanity Project

"I’m a Westie. You may not think I’m a Westie looking at me, but I grew up there... I call New Zealand home, although at times it’s challenging because I’ve had all sorts of prejudices, I guess, against me."

Kawau Island and Sandspit residents want better communication from Auckland Transport after being given three weeks' notice access to Sandspit wharf could stop or be restricted for three months.

This in the lead in to the busiest times of the year.

In an extraordinary turn of events, Kawau Island and Sandspit residents and businesses, and the Rodney Local Board, banded together to convince AT shutting or restricting access would be disastrous for residents, tourism and emergency services, and could jeopardise businesses and people's livelihoods.

Some of New Zealand's great voices will sing together on a reformatted Winery Tour. The Winery Tour has become something of a Kiwi summer institution; it's now in its 11th year.

This year promoters Brent Eccles and Campbell Smith have shaken up the tour's format. "We are so thrilled to be able to present such an impressive array of Kiwi talent in one show," Eccles said.

The shows will retain their traditional three-set structure. Country songstress Tami Neilson and her Hot Rockin' Band of Rhythm will open the show, followed by Annie Crummer, Che Fu, Jason Kerrison (Opshop), Betty-Anne Monga (Ardijah) and Hollie Smith, who will share a band while performing their own greatest hits.

For the final act, the singers will join together to perform the headline set: Songbook: Together in Concert.


On January 27, the tour will visit the Ascension Wine Estate in Matakana. Tickets will be available to buy from next week, but the Rodney Times has a double pass to give away to one lucky reader. Simply 'like' or 'thank' this post. A winner will be chosen at random and notified via the Neighbourly page on October 16 at 10am.

The Winery Tour 2018 will take in 10 locations around New Zealand from January 19 to February 10. Tickets are available from the Winery Tour website.
